Hello,

I am checking to see if people are interested in Fan Funding a new version of the Mad Cat III, it would be the III-X, III-4 and III Eve. The model is based off of Stephen Huda files from the Mad Cat III-Eve.

Okay! This was a Collaboration between Stephen Huda and I!

Here are pictures of the 3D models:

And I did print and paint one, so here is an image of that as well!

So the launchers, right arm and the electronics will be variant bits?

CJKeys · « **Reply #5 on:** 12 September 2021, 16:57:19 »

I'm definitely interested

Luciora · « **Reply #6 on:** 12 September 2021, 17:55:38 »

I'll toss some dosh at it.

Missiles will be integral to the torso similar to the original sculpt. Eve will also have the "Mouth" sculpted right into the torso.

Sensors vary (Arti V/AMS for the X/4 blister and TAG for the Eve). Arms are different as well (obviously!).

Kerfuffin(925) · « **Reply #8 on:** 12 September 2021, 18:48:45 »

would it be two blisters, one for the X/4 and then one for Eve, or a combo?

Stinger · « **Reply #9 on:** 12 September 2021, 18:49:38 »

That's the plan for right now!

BaachicLitNerd · « **Reply #10 on:** 12 September 2021, 19:41:07 »

I could probably use one for that Sea Fox unit I have been plotting, I'd throw in a few bucks.

Stinger...just a recommendation (also open to the financiers that back this), while I get the art is as is...how would everyone feel about trimming down that "over-compensation" of a gun for the right arm? LOL

Valkerie · « **Reply #12 on:** 12 September 2021, 21:55:06 »

Upgrade! I'll throw some money at it.

Great work guys! :thumbsup: 8)

I can always find a way to use store credit

Weirdo · « **Reply #14 on:** 13 September 2021, 13:30:07 »

I'll pass, but best of luck to all of you. I'll reserve my cash for a something that doesn't already have a mini of the same base chassis.

sadlerbw · « **Reply #15 on:** 13 September 2021, 15:41:27 »

I'd probably back this, and I would be OK giving that PPC a bit of a briss!

jwt708 · « **Reply #16 on:** 15 September 2021, 21:31:22 »

I would support...I would support probably anything. :)

DarkISI · « **Reply #17 on:** 16 September 2021, 02:50:21 »

I would be in.
But, no variant for the Mad Cat III 2 from TRO Prototypes? I would love that even more :'(

worktroll · « **Reply #18 on:** 16 September 2021, 03:37:33 »

I will say, if it's a Stinger design, odds are high it'll assemble cleanly and sturdily.

The two doesn't even have an official record sheet though! And the description in TRO Prototypes is not detailed enough to create a record sheet...

In.

Geg · « **Reply #21 on:** 03 December 2021, 08:45:54 »

I would be in... And am very excited!

But I also don't check here enough so someone will probably have to remind to (and how to) contribute.

Sartris · « **Reply #22 on:** 03 December 2021, 09:11:01 »

Speck will make a thread officially soliciting contributions. People post pledging how much they will give until the threshold is reached. You will then be sent a PM so your email can be collected and an invoice sent via PayPal. After everyone has paid you will receive a voucher for the webstore equal to the value of your contribution that can be spent on anything.

Then we wait for the sculpt to be slotted in to the schedule

Geg · « **Reply #23 on:** 19 December 2021, 19:18:29 »

If someone could PM when if and when this kicks off so I don't miss it that would be neat.

Thanks.

cobaltcoil · « **Reply #24 on:** 08 March 2022, 20:00:16 »

I would invest in it...just let me know when

faithless · « **Reply #25 on:** 25 March 2022, 14:58:22 »

I would be in for a few bucks.

ph423r · « **Reply #26 on:** 16 July 2022, 08:41:05 »

I'd be up for more Mad Cat III sculpts.

Geg · « **Reply #27 on:** 08 December 2022, 19:19:10 »

Given it's been about a year. Any updates?

beachhead1985 · « **Reply #28 on:** 15 January 2023, 02:55:45 »

I'd be in for it.

speck · « **Reply #29 on:** 02 February 2023, 10:44:22 »

This is still on hold, not sure if we will go forward with it yet.
